generator thus far described, a space charge is assumed to be developed in the space between'the cathode 6 and the surrounding anode structureby the application of a suitable potential im- 4 loop 28 is connected to the inner conductor of a concentric transmission line 29.
In constructing a magnetic iield structure for a magnetron, it has been observed that leakage iiux is kept at a minimumprovided the ratio of the inner diameter of the magnet I9 to the outer diameter of the rod 3 is greater than a value of 2. Accordingly, itis' contemplated in thek construction of the magnetron circuits described that the inner conductor 3 be a relatively small copper-plated iron rod. In the composite magnetron structure and circuit, therefore, due
Vto the concentric line structure of the cavity pressed between the cathode lead-in tube I4 and the conductor 3 serving 'as an anode lead-in conductor. The electrons which compose this space chargeare given a spiral or orbital motion-.by the uniformmagnetic field which exists between theends of the anode connector II and the cup member 9 serving as magnetic pole pieces to provide a magnetic iield which is parallel to the axis of the device 5. vUnder oscillating conditions, an alternating voltage exists between the outer conductor 2, to which is conductively connected the anode segments 8, and the inner conductor 3, to which is conductively connected the anode segments I and, therefore, alternate sections of the compositefanode structure are atany instant of opposite polarity. The anode segments 'I and 8 carry diiferent alternating potentials to the space charge region surrounding cathode 6 and superimpose the alternating potentialon the Vunidirectional electromagnetic eld already existing between the cathode and the surrounding anode structure.l Because of the interleaving of the anodesegments 1, 8, any two adjacentsegments vare of cppositelpolarity for alternating currents. The presence of this alternating current field in the space charge region causes the electrons vof the discharge to bunch together-in groups so that the operation of the device is similar to the operation of a conventional magnetron.
Means are also provided for adjusting the frequency of the oscillations developed within the cavity resonator I and which'comprise an adjustable annular plunger 24 provided with springlikeV iingers 25, 2E contacting, respectively, the inner surface of conductor 2 and the outer surface of conductor 3. The plunger 24 preferably is formed of a magnetic material, such as iron, and the iingers25, 26 and the surface of the plunger therebetween are provided with a good conductive coating, such as a copper plating. The plunger V2li may be moved axially to serve as an end wall forthe cavity resonator I, such movement being eifected by anyV suitable means, such as the `adjusting rod 21. The frequency of the oscillations developed within the cavity resonator Iisdetermined by the length of the section of transmissionline between the metal disk I9 and the plunger 24. Accordingly, the longest velectromagnetic wave which can be established within the magnetron tube has a length which is equal to about four times the electrical distance between these short-circuiting members. Y The axial length of the pole piece is adjusted to provide a desired range of wave length for the use contemplated. Energy may be abstracted from resonator l by any suitable output electrode means, such as the loop 28 carried by plunger 24. The
resonator, substantially no ultra high frequency electromagnetic eld exists outside the cavity resonator defined by the conductors 2, 3 and, at the same time, leakage magnetic flux is kept to a minimum value.
In the foregoing description, the magnetic structure I9 has been disclosed as of the permanent magnet type. It is apparent, however-,that other types of magnetic structures usingenergizing windings may be employed in conjunction with the particularly high frequency tube structure disclosed. Y
While we have shown a particular embodiment of our invention, it will of course beunderstood that we do not wish to be limited thereto since various modifications may be made, and we contemplate by the appended, claims to cover any such modications as fall within the true spirit and scope of our invention. i
